Radio Shack Turbo Beatle RC Car / Turbo T-Buggy Front Suspension

thingiverse

This is my first design EVER! I just got my 3d printer last week to fix my toy RC car I broke 26 years ago as a kid. I designed these parts to replace the broken axle, trailing arm, and lower knuckle for my childhood RC Car, the Radio Shack Turbo T-buggy. These parts also fit the Radio Shack Turbo Beetle from 1988. The only thing you have to do is drill a hole on the middle of the trailing arm that extends to the lower knuckle piece and put in a small screw to hold them together. You may also need to run a drill through the hole on the trailing arm where the rod runs through to make it slightly bigger. You will also need to drill a hole where the axle mounts to the turning arm thingy. I recommend 100% infill for the parts for maximum strength. I printed these in PLA and they hold up just fine. I recommend replacing both sides due to small differences in the part versus the original, it helps with keepign the steering consistent
